Glazing

Texture Glass Range

For privacy, pure style or to allow more light into internal rooms, decorative glass gives you a whole range of attractive options. In fact, Pilkington gives you no fewer than 25 different patterned glass designs – from classic to contemporary, no one offers a bigger choice.

The advantages of Pilkington decorative glass are easy to see, too: it allows maximum light while maintaining privacy or obscuring unattractive views, and also forms an attractive decorative feature itself.

With new texture designs regularly added and the Pilkington Oriel etched glass range offering even more possibilities, there really is no better choice of decorative glass for your home.

Pilkington Texture Glass offers privacy and style throughout the home.

Five levels of privacy are available, graded from 1 (least obscuration) to 5 (greatest obscuration).

Toughened or laminated versions are available for safety and/or security.

All are suitable for double glazing.

Activ – Self-Cleaning Glass

The unique dual-action of the Pilkington Activ™ coating uses the forces of nature to help keep the glass free from organic dirt, giving you not only the practical benefit of less cleaning, but also clearer, better-looking windows.

Saves you time and money and is safer than cleaning your own windows.

Can be used in almost any external domestic application.

Unique coating is not worn away or rubbed off – lasts the lifetime of the glazing itself.

Easily cleaned during dry spells by hosing down or wiping with a soft cloth and warm soapy water.

Can be used in conjunction with other Pilkington glass products to provide increased energy efficiency and save on heating bills.
